A functional hybrid molecule, C60–MPAA, has been designed and synthesized by taking advantage of the excellent physical and chemical properties of C60 and nanoscale ordering of anthryl-based self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The SAM of C60–MPAA exhibits stable and highly ordered 2D arrays that form an oblique lattice at room temperature and exhibit interesting electronic properties.
